FT. LAUDERDALE, FL - February 28, 2006 -- LatPro.com, the leading employment Web site for professional bilingual talent in the Americas, has been recently chosen as a recipient of WEDDLE's Annual User's Choice Award for 2006, ranking LatPro among the top 30 employment sites online.
Known as the "Zagat´s Guide" of online employment, WEDDLE's has been conducting surveys of recruiters, job seekers and employment-related Web sites since 1996 and has been cited by such publications as The Wall Street Journal, Money, Inc., and Fortune. Through a year-long polling process at Weddles.com, users voted for the sites they felt deliver the best level of service and value (the list of winners may be viewed online at: www.weddles.com/awards ).
"We are especially proud to receive this award because it was determined by the employers, recruiters and job seekers who actually use our service," said LatPro President Eric Shannon. "Our focus has always been on providing the absolute best user experience, customer service and value for our clients, and we´re pleased that our efforts have been recognized in this way. We want to thank everyone for their votes on our behalf."
Previously featured in the 2001 print edition of Weddle's Recruiter's Guide to Employment Web Sites, LatPro connects employers and recruiters with Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking professionals within the United States and worldwide. Maintaining the same dedication to quality that first gained Weddle´s recognition, some of the unique features that set LatPro apart include:
- Only real jobs: All job listings and employers are carefully screened in advance by a real person to ensure that only professional, salaried jobs appear on LatPro. Users never have to wade through questionable "opportunities", MLM schemes or work-at-home scams found on other employment sites.
- No irrelevant or "in your face" advertising: Advertising is limited and only includes selected products and services that are of specific interest to Hispanic job seekers. There are no pop-ups, pop-unders or other forms of distracting advertising
- Our focus is Hispanic Diversity: LatPro´s targeted focus simplifies the recruiting and hiring process for both employers and jobseekers, enabling Hispanic and bilingual professionals and the employers seeking their skills to connect quickly and easily. Also, as a fully tri-lingual site LatPro users may choose to view the site in English, Spanish or Portuguese.
